I worked in the ED department(s) in the hospital. Severely understaffed. Will put 4 new patients in your rooms at the same time. No help from other staff because they too are behind. The layout in the ED and access to supplies is not conducive for efficient patient care 05/29/2016

Housing was approximately 30min mile(s) from the hospital. The name of the housing complex was N/A. Housing was located in city of Lithia springs . On a scale from 1 to 5, I would rate it a 5. Hired there as a new grad, worked there 2yrs and had to leave to try travel nursing. I was over worked under payed.with my 2yr raise as a regular staff i was at $26/hr Patient ratio was at 1:6. The med/surg unit I was at was too specializes with medical,surgical,bariatric and ENT patients.A combination for a long shit where you barely sit down,get a lunch break to any help from other nurse because they were usually overwhelmed as well.I worked night shift for that whole 2yrs there and that helped wit avoiding the busyness of the unit and nasty/rude doctors. At am able to squeeze in an hour lunch break at 1 or 2am once all my patients are asleep. I noticed them bringing in more travelers in the unit as I was resigning. The staff are friendly to travelers and offer a hand as much as possible if they are not overwhelmed themselves,which they usually are, so be prepared to weather it alone.Management is terrible,which is part of the reason the unit was unmanageable for the staff.

I worked in the Labor and Delivery department(s) in the hospital. The hospital is extremely short-staffed. The nurses working there are friendly and work with you as if you are a permanent employee. They listen to your concerns. 12/02/2015
